David Carr was the top overall pick in the 2002 NFL draft, the first player ever taken by the Houston Texans. Derek, who also went to Fresno State and, like his elder brother enters the league with a wife and child, went 36th overall when Oakland selected him in the second round Friday night.

Eleven years younger than David, Derek Carr also must hope he gets better protection with the Raiders than David did with Houston. David Carr never reached the expectations of a No. 1 pick, in great part because he was sacked so often during his time with the Texans.

“I learned everything that he did right and everything that he did wrong,” Derek Carr said. “He told me that if he could do anything, he hopes he made the path smoother for me as I transition into the NFL.”

Derek Carr rewrote the Bulldogs' record book, throwing for more than 10,000 yards and 100 touchdown passes.

He led Fresno State to consecutive Mountain West Conference titles in his final two seasons and passed for 5,082 yards and 50 touchdowns in 2013.

Oakland acquired veteran Matt Schaub to be its starter, but he will get a serious push from Carr.

In other notable draft news:

Cleveland, more active than any team in the first round, added a protector for Johnny Manziel by grabbing guard Joel Bitonio of Nevada, who also can play tackle or center. The Browns caused the biggest stir on opening night when they traded up to No. 22 to get Johnny Football.

“I think he's a heck of a quarterback,” Bitonio said. “Hopefully, he comes in and he's ready to compete and just ready to work and do well for the Cleveland Browns.”

Several teams were busy on the trade block. The most notable move was the Bills, who sent receiver Stevie Johnson to the 49ers in a deal made before the start of the second round.

In exchange, Buffalo got an undisclosed pick next year — ESPN reported it is in the fourth round. The deal was made a day after the Bills traded up five spots to select Clemson receiver Sammy Watkins with the fourth pick.

Johnson is likely to be the No. 3 receiver for the 49ers behind Michael Crabtree and Anquan Boldin. He had three consecutive seasons (2010-12) with more than 1,000 yards receiving before dropping off to 52 catches for 597 yards last season because of an assortment of injuries.

It took 54 selections, a draft record, for a running back to go. Bishop Sankey of Washington was chosen by the Titans, who cut Chris Johnson this spring. Two more went in the next three selections: Jeremy Hill of LSU to Cincinnati, and Carlos Hyde of Ohio State to San Francisco.

Ex-Louisville quarterback Teddy Bridgewater says he is going to be playing with a chip on his shoulder after falling all the way to the last pick of the first round.

Bridgewater was once considered the top QB in the class. But after a poor showing at his pre-draft workout, Bridgewater fell all the way to No. 32, where the Vikings traded up to get him.

Texas coach Charlie Strong, who recruited and coached Bridgewater at Louisville, said it was difficult to watch a player he thinks so highly of get so unfairly criticized.

“You can't take one workout and tell me that one workout is going to judge who Teddy Bridgewater is and what type of player he is,” Strong said.
